I wanted to get in some easy speed work today so I did my on/off workout but slowed the fast pace down to about 5K pace (10mph) and picked up the slow pace to 7.5 mph.
After a 10 minute warm up at 7:30, I started into the on/off workout switching speeds every 60 seconds and did 20 sets and then did a little less than a mile cool down for a total of 8 miles run. It was a great workout, definitely easier than my on/offs I usually do at 11mph/5.5mph. It has left me feeling fresh and invigorated today like I want to get out and run some more. I won't though.
Tomorrow I will take a rare complete rest day that isn't a Sunday. I have to go to Palm Springs for the day to do some continuing education. I'll have to leave the house around 4:30am and won't get home intil after 9pm so I'll just take the day off. |
